Finding the Static Correction Level Best Suited for Your Dog

If your dog appears
unaffected:
Check the fit and
function of the
Receiver Collar by
referring to page 5.
Some dogs do not
show a reaction to
the correction,
but they do feel it
and can be trained
just as effectively
as any other dog.
After completing the
training session and
your dog has not
responded to the
correction, consider
increasing the static
correction by one level.
Do not jump to
the highest level
of correction.
Repeat training session.
If session is successful:
If all 5 levels of static
correction have been
tested and your dog still
shows no reaction to any
of the static correction
levels, see the
"Test Light Instructions"
on page 7.

Setup
Fit Receiver Collar to your dog.
Set the Receiver Collar to correction level 2.

™
is on the Stay! Mat , change the Stay! Mat
the Beep and Static Correction Mode.
If your dog does not "Place" on the mat, make sure you
are holding the leash so your dog doesn't move far
from the mat and lead your dog back to the mat
within a few seconds of the correction.

If your dog looks
puzzled and confused:
These are signs
that your dog is feeling
the correction and
everything is working
properly.
Make sure your dog has
all four feet on the mat.
Repeat training session.
Praise and Treat.
Turn the Stay! Mat™

If your dog whimpers,
appears anxious and
tries to run away:
These are signs that
your dog is feeling
the correction and
everything is working.
If your dog runs off
of the mat, guide him
back to the mat and
give the "Place"
command.
*Check the fit of the Receiver Collar.
If your dog has long or thick hair,
replace the contact points with the
longer set. Then go back and repeat
the process. If this does not yield
results, your dog's hair will need to be
trimmed around the contact points.
If your dog seems highly
distressed or panicky:
STOP!
The static correction level
is too high. Training at a
correction level that is
too high is counter
productive.
Recheck the static
correction level setting
and reduce it. Level 2
should not cause this
reaction. The correction
level should only
be high enough to
remind your dog to
return to the mat.
